Until a year ago, my life in Denver was nearly picture perfect; I had my dream job as a nurse in a level one trauma center, my handsome trauma surgeon fiancé and I were blissfully happy, and we had built our forever home we planned to spend forever in. Just weeks before our wedding, the ideal life I knew took an unexpected turn when my fiancé’s mistress came forward with her pregnancy.Being newly single at thirty-one, the last thing I had envisioned for myself was to return to my hometown of Sunnyville. Until now, I have successfully avoided this town for the last eight years, thanks to Tank Easton. Broody, sexy, lying, beautiful, selfish jerk. Who just happens to be my brother’s best friend.
Charlie comes from a family that is willing to always help others. She sees the good in people even when they don't see it in themselves. She has been in love with her brother's best friend Tank for years. One night everything changes and she is left hurt and confused. She left her hometown for years but now she is back and willing to call a truce.
Tank has been fighting his own demons for years. The only light in his life is his best friends family that has taking him in as one of their own. Charlie is the brightest of those lights and gives him hope. But fighting his demons did not seem possible until she left town for good. Now she is back and he wants her to know that he is a changed man.
I enjoyed reading this book. There was some angst but overall the book was sweet and fun. I loved both Tank and Charlie from the beginning. While I could not feel the chemistry, the book is written in a way that you know it's there. Tank is extremely romantic and is willing to go above and beyond to show Charlie that she is the one for him. Almost all of the frequently seen characters were likeable and added to the storyline in the perfect way. I cannot wait to see what happens with Charlie's brothers.
This book has an HEA

Who just happens to be my brother’s best friend.
Knowing there is no way to avoid Tank, I plan to put our one-night stand behind us and start anew. Be cordial. Possibly become friends eventually, for my brother’s sake. Life is too short to hold grudges. Forgive and forget, right?
Easier said than done.
